oh god this will be horrible if it gets to online, ragdoll players for days

This.

I'd say it's the whole reason the stun gun isn't in Online, and won't be. One shot and you're down and helpless until the shooter decides to let you up? It's a troll weapon, pure and simple.

While we're on the new weapons, SNS and Broken Bottle - whooo! Whole day made! A short range, low-capacity pistol and a reskinned knife - that's certainly going to even the odds against those tanks and miniguns. No way I'm gumming up my weapon menus with those space-wasters.

Just saw it on the social club page under weapons let the search begin

Just looked on the Social club weapons page. The Stun Gun Does show up when an Offline character is selected but does NOT show when you select your Online character. So NO, the Stun Gun is not available online. (unhacked anyway)

Do you know how extremely f*cking close you'd have to be to stun a player everytime? It's far from being o.p.

I have a stun gun, molotovs and a fire extinguisher online. The stun gun is actually pretty fun to use on your friends and such, have not used it on people in a public lobby for the fact I don't want reports, but its a funny sight to shoot through the window of their car and their character gets out of the car perfectly normal than just drops suddenly and twitchs around. Would be much more rewarding if you shot them with it while they were in a car and they would completely lose control of their character as the car accelerates full speed.

Stun gun isn't there for me. Maybe they removed it? Either way, not available.

If they ever did make it available, it would be with some reasonable damage, to prevent obvious griefing methods.

But, but, but... I want to perma-stun people That would have been the best counter to tanks and miniguns. "Oh yeah motherf*cker?" Lmao.

This patch actually made me realize how much space I'm wasting on weapons, it's so unnecessarily cluttered. I bought the glass bottle, immediately went "what the hell am I doing?", and proceeded to drop it and 90% of my weapons right there on the Ammunation floor.

When you have one weapon that's objectively better than every other weapon of that type, there's no reason to keep the rest. AP Pistol and Advanced Rifle are the biggest offenders, they outclass their alternatives in every single respect. Makes the previous versions pointless.

The stun gun worked online. Before patch 1.06 you could glitch it in from SP. A search on YouTube should confirm.

That's what they originally said, but it was later tested and verified to be impossible. The only way to get the stun gun online was by modding the game (specifically, they were modding the ambulance to give you a stun gun in addition to full health and a bunch of other stuff).

Although, you lost it if you died or left the server.

Another person made a mod which apparently lets you keep the stun gun after death, but still can't keep it when you change servers.

But yeah, like you said, it works exactly the same way in online that it does in single-player.
